Digital music is beginning to compensate for the decline in CD sales, the UK's main industry body has revealed.
The BPI said that in June digital album sales passed 100,000 in a single week for the first time, offsetting the 23% fall in CD album sales, and much of the credit is given to Apple.
"Album bundles with extra tracks, videos and sleeve artwork offer excellent value-for-money for consumers, whilst iTunes' variable pricing on album bundles and the Complete My Album facility have all helped to drive album sales,' the BPI said. "The iTunes Live Music Festival throughout July looks set to give a further boost to the digital albums market."
